The document titled 'Rules of Procedure: Chairmen's Compromise Text' outlines the procedural framework for the negotiations leading to the Good Friday Agreement, as governed by the Northern Ireland (Entry to Negotiations, etc) Act 1996. It details the structure of the negotiations, which are divided into three strands covering relationships within Northern Ireland, within the island of Ireland, and between the British and Irish Governments. The document specifies the roles and responsibilities of the chairmen, including Senator George Mitchell, General John de Chastelain, and Prime Minister Harri Holkeri, who will oversee various aspects of the negotiations. It also addresses the decision-making process, emphasizing consensus and the principle that nothing is agreed until everything is agreed, and includes provisions for the Business Committee, confidentiality, and the recording of meetings.
